Rations, Rights, and Rivets
Exhibit advertising and branding done for Rations, Rights, and Rivets: Experiencing WWII in El Paso. The exhibit is based mostly on the homefront which is why women are the main focus of the advertising design.
CLIENT: The Centennial Museum and Chihuahuan Desert Gardens

Logo Design
Invite design for the opening reception. It is based on an old telegram.
A recipe book is made for the exhibit to be used as an interactive. It has excerpts from "Recipes for Today" that were published by General Foods Corporation in 1943. Each illustration is hand-drawn by me

Design Process
The logo is based on old WWII emblems. El Paso is a border city with the United States and Mexico. Both countries are represented patriotically by eagles. I took this idea to form the basis of the logo.
Early Concept Sketches
Steps in digital painting process
Old Ironsides is the name of the 1st Armored Division of Fort Bliss. It was the first armored division of the U.S. Army to see battle in World War II. The badge had a lightning bolt which I tried to incorporate into the logo design. It was scrapped due to unclarity.
